I can't believe how much I love this audio. Julie Huss does an excellent job
getting the right narrators for her stories and Mr. Corporate is another
example of how a good narrator can bring a story to life. It goes without saying that I am a big fan of
JA Huss' writing. She is an excellent
storyteller and her characters are some of the best. When I first read Mr. Corporate the story didn't grab me like the other Misters, however, when I listen to the audio, I get a picture of the characters in a different light.
I love the Mister Series, and now
that I'm listening to the books the stories and characters are more appealing
to me than before. The series is about
five men who, as college students, are accused of a crime they didn't commit.
All five men are hot, successful, and have secrets that unfold a little with
each new story.
Mr. Corporate is the most
"edge of the seat" mystery to me so far. There is the major story arc
through the series regarding what happened in college and why. Who is behind
the accusations and why do they want to hurt these particular men? There is
also the second chance romance between Weston Conrad and Victoria Arias.
Weston and Victoria (Tori) are
on again, off-again lovers since college. When the relationship is good, it is
on fire and works for both West and Tori. However, Tori takes offense to
everything West says and does romantically causing problems.
Tori is a major witch with a
capital "B" in the beginning. What I like is that as the story moves
and the characters develop we learn some of Tori's secrets. These revelations
soften the readers' judgment regarding her actions.
The narrators did a fantastic
job bringing this story to life. I enjoy the way Abby Craden has the tone of a
"Queen B" in the beginning then as the story unfolds, she softens,
and we feel Victoria's love for West.
Ryan West does an excellent job
narrating Weston Conran's point of view. His contradiction of strength and
weaknesses come through his voice and give me a complete picture of the
character. I love how Ryan conveys Weston's inner conflict regarding Victoria.
Weston knows that Victoria is the woman for him but also faces the fact that
their union may never happen.
The narrators gave me new
insight into this couples' story, and, while I like the book when I initially
read it, the audio gives me the opportunity to see the events from a different
perspective. The mystery and the secrets these friends hold are cause for more
anxiety. Also, this time listening to the story, I feel more fear for the
group, not just this couple.
I can't wait for Mr. Mysterious.
Great job!
